14 6. LCA results interpretation The image below demonstrates the impact of each life cycle stage on 5 key parameters, producing a clear view of how each stage contributes to the overall environmental impacts of 12.5 mm thick Rigips Fire Protection Plasterboard. 14

15 7. Environmental contribution The plant constantly works on increasing energy efficiency and environmental impact reduction. ISO 9001, ISO implementation and WCM (World class manufacturing programme) helps increase environmental efficiency. The main fuel used for production of the boards is natural gas. It accounts for over 80 % of energy usage. Significant portion (600 kw) of waste heat from production is being recovered: 1. To be re-used it in production (e.g DSG preheating) 2. To heat up plant and adjacent offices (including hot utility water supply) Benefit from use of waste heat is about 2 % savings De Sulphurised Gypsum, the main raw material is by-product from flue gas desulphurization plant, which is part of near power station. This secondary product is transported from power station by about 800 m long belt conveyor system, it means, there is lower environmental impact from the transport. Production methods maximize the use of water from local sources, such as borehole abstraction, which make up 97 % of production requirements. Less than 3 % of water is taken from the public network. The plant makes wide range of the plasterboard products, so the need for transport from distant production facilities is minimized. All the gypsum waste generated during production is directly recycled on the site, so no gypsum waste is landfilled. VOC emissions The standards used widely in Europe to evaluate VOC levels in plasterboard products are EN13419 & ISO Based upon indicative testing of a sample of plasterboard products, Rigips plasterboard is estimated not to contain a VOC content or Formaldehyde content which exceeds the requirements of European voluntary labeling schemes connected with indoor air quality. 8.
